Casan also said they will be reechoing the learnings they acquired to their fellow youth in their community.
"We believe that we have to educate them. If they are not informed well, there is a tendency na sasali sila sa kung anong organisasyon [that they will join in other organizations]," he added.
The young public servant also urged his fellow youth to remain inspired and determined in implementing their advocacies.
"Maging inspired lang at determinado [We should be inspired and determined]. We have to be determined in certain things that we are going to impose," he said.

"Ang pagtitipon na ito ay sobrang laki ng tulong dahil ito ay naglalayon na payabungin ang mga naumpisahan ng unang kabataan na ngayon ay nagpapatuloy ng legasiyang minimithi natin," he said.
[This gathering is a big help because it aims to thrive the legacy that the youth have started.]
Emphasizing the great role of the youth in nation-building, Panondiongan called on the youth to participate in peace programs.
"Huwag kayong susuko na magparticipate sa kahit na anong programa. Huwag susuko na maging mabuting kabataan at magcontribute sa bayan," he added
[Do not give up on participating in any program. Don't give up to be a good youth and contribute to the country.]
